1. Compile and install apache and postgres as usual
2. make sure the path to the postgres libs is in /etc/ld.so.config and do an
/sbin/ldconfig after adding it (reboot should do this automagically)
Or You have to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in every shell where You want to
use applications linked against the shared postgres libs
3. Compile mod_auth_pgsql (respect Your paths to apache and postgres!):
/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -I/usr/local/pgsql/include -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq -o mod_auth_pgsql.so -c *.c
4. Install mod_auth_pgsql (respect Your paths to apache!):
/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -i -a -n auth_pgsql mod_auth_pgsql.so

Hope this helps.

Greetings,
